The Australia international has been badly hampered by groin and hamstring injuries this season and it is most unlikely the club will renew his contract.Viduka has made just one Premier League start for the St James' Park side this term and was ruled out of Wednesday's home defeat by Manchester United by his latest setback.
Coach Chris Hughton: "It's just a minor injury which Mark picked up in training.
"It kept him out of the Manchester United game but we don't expect him to be out for too long."
